On Monday, June 27, 2022, a local law enforcement officer on night patrol spotted a vehicle traveling with its headlights off. When the officer initiated a traffic stop at a residential intersection, the driver pulled into a nearby driveway, quickly exited, and locked the vehicle. The driver claimed he did not have his license or the keys to the car, but a records check soon revealed his license had been indefinitely suspended since March of that year. After a K-9 unit arrived and alerted to the presence of narcotics, a search of the vehicle uncovered two bags of white crystal rocks—later confirmed to be 17.7 grams of methamphetamine—tucked near the driver's seat and center console. Deputies also found a black case in the back seat containing the driver’s license, two digital scales, a glass smoking pipe, and extra baggies, along with a metal container holding two Hydrocodone pills. The individual was arrested on multiple felony charges, including drug trafficking, and transported to the county jail.
